I did an internship with an SRE/Cloud Engineer in high school, and I can confirm that these steps are 100% accurate👍
I just wanna understand how can I get internship. I just graduated
@@bombrman1994 He was a family friend, so I kinda had it made. If you know somebody in the cloud field, you can ask them if they would be willing to teach you or if they know of some online resources that you could use.
@@bombrman1994 wait for better times and then it is going to be easy. Currently there are a rather bad times for IT professionals.
Thanks for this.
TLDR:
💻 Learning basic IT fundamentals such as DNS, HTTP, OSI model is crucial to work in the cloud
🐧 Learning Linux operating system and its administration is important as most cloud environments run on Linux
🐳 Learning Docker and containerization is essential for deployment and scaling of applications in the cloud
🐍 Learning Python programming language is important for cloud automation and hitting SDKs to pull down information
☁ Learning AWS fundamentals is important for understanding cloud infrastructure and how it works
🤖 Learning DevOps tools such as Ansible, Terraform, and GitLab CI is important for automation and infrastructure as code practices
🚀 Building projects using DevOps tools, automating deployments using Ansible, and using Terraform to provision infrastructure are key to becoming a successful cloud engineer
Is there a preferred distro of Linux that suits itself towards cloud tech?
How do I get all these ? Where do I get all these softwares to download!! Help please
@@mikeasa1acloudguru and tutorialdojo will help you learn all of this. Cloud+ Linux+ and AWS/Azure certs will help as well
@@J_J__Ubuntu is a common distro
@@J_J__ anything derived from the two forks: RH or Debian. Learn one, then learn the differences in the other. RHEL is more pervasive in the Enterprise. Don't get hung up on what desktop environment everyone is running today, the shell is where you'll spend your life.
Thanks. This is really good info. Can't wait for more.
Thanks brother, Great advice! Wishing you and your channel all the best!!
I am new to cloud and before watching this video, I was lost. I thought doing some certifications would land me a job. But this is it, this is the path , a road map to success. Thank you Joe.
exactly, certs do NOTHING!!! USELESS!!!
Excellent video, Joe. Clear, well organized and to the point. Thank you!
This was more informative than handful of other videos combined. Thanks
One of the most useful videos in the cloud roadmap much of thank man
This is very well done and clear. I've seen a bunch of these kinds of videos, and this is one of the best one I've seen.
Awesome thanks! I am just getting started and now I have a real path forward!!
Thanks for laying out the path! I’m on the azure side right now but this gives me a good idea of what I need to do next
Great video! A very solid road map. Much appreciated.
I wish I had something like this when I started 2 years ago. I did still manage to follow most of these suggestions because I had a mentor in the industry. Nice job!
Oh Man! You've banged it all with right attitude! Purely contageous! Thanks so much.
Man, this is such solid advice. You even gave examples on some projects and how to get started. Thank you, i will be sharing this.
This was the best video regarding cloud engineering road map, I thank you from the bottom of my heart
A lot of the other roadmaps I've seen just seem too complicated and confusing.
But this one is straight to the point, thank you very much for this.
There’s a lot to learn to become a Cloud Engineer. Thanks for the video!
So excellently guided and explained to the point !! Hats off !!
The most informative detailed explanation to cloud engineering on you tube.
im glad im on the right track I was thinking about learning Python, containers like docker, im already working through AWS certs. Thanks for the guidance.
Glad I've come across your channel.. I am an aspiring Cloud Engineer and will to learn .
thank you so much, such an in-depth information for someone who is trying to retrain in IT after almost 20yrs from scratch.
I know I have a lot to learn and take in, I'm sure with the help of RUclips and other learning platforms, I will be able to get the basics. thank you once again, very useful specifically what to learn in step by step process. You deserve a star *
Very concise and comprehensive. Thank you so much.
Thank you for taking the time
Sir, thank you i will for sure try to implement all your advice.
This is gold I've followed this and completed everything you have told me and now I've reached a level of very high knowledge of cloud
First RUclipsr I’ve seen in years that explains the basics
This is the type of education plan Ive been looking for thank you so much!!
Have you started with this route? How is it going and do you like it?
That looks so promising, i will follow exactly as you suggested. Thanks you!
Let the community know how’s going in a year
This video was such a highly valuable source for beginners like me, it is quite surprising that it did not show up on the top of my searching recommendation. Thank you for the amazing content like this, I am so grateful of being able to see this.
thanks for all of this info!!
Best path to cloud on RUclips, no bull sh.. just direct answer.
this is solid... i will be starting my cloud engineering course next year..will be back here for testimony
This was one of the best explained paths for cloud that I have found on RUclips. Thank you for this video.
Your welcome I’m glad you got value from it
@@joeterlecki I love you Joe... Thank u so much
I swear to god
@@joeterleckiall of these are the same for Cloud Security? Or is for somebody who will work Cloud administrator? 🤔
Great video and great explanation. Thanks for sharing.
All I can say is "Thank you" You are such an inspiration and Your explanation is direct. I can begin my focus now..
Your welcome. I’m glad I helped!!
So crystal clear!! thanks!!!!
Fantastic video. Super accurate and prescriptive.
this is 100% legit!
i joined a big corp in Cloud Engineering Intern role and all the things mentioned are needed!
would love if you pin resources from which we can learn all the ones you mentioned!
thanks a ton! ❤
This is mature content I hope freshets realize how valuable these 7 tips are. It's frustrating to see those students still in college not taking advice seriously. Relying on exam certificate dumps fo pass certs might help landing a job but won't help keeping the job.
Genuine tips, thanks mate. Loved your video after I became a Cloud Engineer.
Thanks a lot. Congrats and welcome to the chaos. Cloud engineering is such a rewarding field
Wow! Amazing advice! Thank you!
Your welcome!
Great advice.. I’ve been trying to secure cloud but avoiding the engineering path, I’ve been reading comments and I saw your reply stating “you have to know how to build it to secure it” 💣
The 11:12 minute mark is motivation! Time to get hands dirty!
I hope this is still relevant to this day but this video has been a breath of fresh air clearing up where to begin or start this career. Thanks.
100 percent still relevant!!
This video is going into my favorites!
you are a cloud guru. best video ever.
Well articulated points.
THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO!!!! I AM SURPRISED AT WHAT IS BEING TAUGHT IN THE WORLD OF KNOWLEDGE. I CALL IT KNOWLEDGE COUNCIL POWER UNKNOWN!!!! NOW I HAVE A SUGGESTION FOR THE YOUNG WHO DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO IN THEIR FUTURE!!!!! THANK YOU!!!!
This video was pure gold and super helpful to better understand how to get into Cloud from a beginner standpoint.
Thank you so much
Excellent video. I really like the way you encourage project-based learning. I am glad you mentioned Git and bash scripting in Linux. I use both daily in my cloud administration.
For Cloud Security is important also?
You're a life saver brother thank you
Thank you very much brother, very knowledgeable video, clear and precise.
Hella informative, thank you!!
Thanks sooo much. Really good video!!!
Beautifully explained...you got a new subscriber
bravo!!! bravo!!! I watched a lot of videos over the past week. Yes, I am currently stating for the AWS Solution Architect certification. Out of thirty videos literally, I watched, you have given the most sound, solid advice. And trust me, I will follow the game plans you had given in this video completely! Because no one wants to pay someone just for being a smart azz, there is no faking it until you make it. Skillz is what pays the bills.
Get after it man and good to here it. Devops and cloud engineering doesn’t have a clear path like software engineering because of the wide breadth of knowledge.
That’s why I have learned the hard way that aws and cloud tools are abstractions of basics and fundamentals.
Also don’t be afraid to use another role as a stepping stone to get experience. If you have no IT or systems experience. Start out in help desk and or sysadmin. Those roles will help you build up.
I started in information security and my path to learning how to set up servers for web app testing and pen testing got me started I. The journey.
Cloud salaries are crazy and if you stick with it you can get in on the cash. The role isn’t going anywhere as it’s always getting more complex. In 4 years I quadrupled my salary just be being diligent and always learning
@@joeterlecki Is there a specific order in which course to start?
And does moving from one course to another not make the mind distracted?
I just landed my first job on this line of field! Junior Cloud Administrator :) So anxious because I still don't know jackshit about the stuff except the basics. That's why I looked for and then found you. Gotta study all day every day.
That’s awesome! Congrats. This field is very fast and always changing. I been a cloud engineer/sre/devops for over 5 years now and I still have days where I don’t know jackshit.
Google and documentation is your best friend
what are some steps you took?
@@joeterlecki what are the best steps u took?
Wish me luck Joe. After almost a year in Systems Administration I'm going to try and move into the cloud. I have some home labbing to do... but that's always fun :)
So helpful! Thanks so much
Great vid thanks im looking at moving that way via aws
Whatever he adviced except the prof part he has all in his videos.... U r so bright young man kudos i like it very much
I was so confused at where to start; I literally took everything from this video and put it in a paper as my game plan. Since I have zero IT experience, all terminologies were new to me, so it took me more than an hour to complete my notes by pausing the video and make sense of things such as spelling :). Thank you, Joe, for sharing your wisdom with us.
Good luck my brother
How far have you come
Where’s the update brother
Give us an update Bro
I guess u didn’t go through with this it’s been 10months
Mehn! this is what I need. Thanks for sharing Sir.
Most informative video I've come across so far. 1. Thank you. 2. Jeez, lots to learn. I had watched a video yesterday that said you just need your two aws certs and python to break into the field. But I guess that's not the case.
That used to be the case 4 l/5 years ago until companies realized they need people with real experience. Certs test your quiz able knowledge of topics but don’t demonstrate can you deliver a product. Cloud is just an abstraction of multiple IT disciplines and exposes that as a set of apis. This allows a single person to manage a data center. Know how to use aws and the surrounding tools and proccess to deliver applications and infrastructure is key.
AGREE with Cloud is an abstraction of multiple disciplines. I love do you start mentioning professor messer is a must. I have two CompTIA certs thanks to professor messer and even that I continuo going back to his videos to hone a lot of IT concepts we need to know in this IT Realm.
Beautifully laid out .. Appreciate it!
This was such a great realistic video
This is great! Just yesterday, I was asking for a roadmap from my friends as to how to start out learning to be a cloud engineer. Little did I know that there was an already laid down blueprint here. Thank you for sharing this, Joe! Definitely following you for more insights.
Hi Raphael please I would like to reach out to you.
Hi @@ceciliakomolafe7476, can I send you my email address?
Hi Raphael, please let's linkup
omg, Thanks man!
Thank you!
Damn! This is so good, thank you 1000 times
THANKS SIR FROM BANGLADESH 🇧🇩. It's help me a lot . More informative video need 👏
thank you for this, some pro tips.
Your welcome
Valuable advice man - really appreciate it. I'm currently doing helpdesk and trying to find a way out. Interested in Cloud but didn't really know where to start. Subscribed. Thank you!
man, it would be really cool if you made a video walking through doing some of these things. I think youd make a wonderful instructor.
Hi joe! That has to be the best informative run down of realistic cloud engineer perspectives I have seen on this platform, the explanation and execution was flawless. I’m currently moving from iT technician for schools into a this chosen career path and I am grateful for the no fluff get to the point description especially about “the certs” certs are gd but projects and some experience will definitely help in my humble opinion… Subs!! To the channel & I look fwd to your upcoming content reviews on the cloud engineer path👨🏽💻
Thank you. I’m glad it helped. Yeh dude just start building projects and learn the way of the cloud. There’s a lot to learn but man it’s rewarding. You can be a one man shop who runs an entires data center. This is only possible because of aws and cloud tech.
@@joeterlecki I was torn between AWS & Azure... I took some Azure Certs but still feel drawn to AWS so I feel I owe to myself to investigate this and at a very basic point in my early career embark on 'multi-cloud" from a flexibility standpoint and then decide on which to really focus on... just an idea/notion I had..
Multi cloud is a buzzword and never worth the effort. If you lean one cloud you know enough to switch when the time come.
Pick a provider and stick with it. I would look for what’s being used in your local market first. If you want to be remote then I think AWS is the clear winner as it’s the market leader and most feature rich. Don’t fall into the multi cloud trap. Most places already are multi cloud. Gmail check, slack check, confluence check, GitHub check, aws check. All of those are different parts of cloud.
Once you know aws in an out you can easily switch to another if your career depends on it. All the core services are pretty much the same across all core services. The only difference is how some are implimwnted or vendor specific features/services
But if you have the azure certs now and know the platofrm stick with azure. You will get a rewarding high paying career.
Cloud almost quadrupled my salary in 4 years.
finally!!! I found someone who tells EXACTLY about what knowledge is needed to learn cloud. I have zero IT knowledge. I researched getting degree through WGU-cloud program. I"ve compared other colleges, but, I"ve noticed other schools make you take calculus. So, I started to wonder, why doesn't WGU have a calculus class that is needed.
Great video, when you watch this you realize just how convoluted and dis-organized cloud environments are. It really doesn't need to be this difficult.
Well it kinda does. Enterprise architecture was always complicated. Managing and running data centers and having multiple teams of people to keep that running is more complicated in my opinion. The cloud abstractions made it possibles for a single person or a few people to run a data center in the cloud
@@joeterlecki There is a difference between complicated and convoluted. What I was trying to convey is the whole WWW, devops, CD/CI were poorly thought-out and hence they are convoluted. I would say Tensor calculus was well thought out however still complicated. Anyone can come up with solutions out of thin air, it doesn't mean they are efficient solutions. Your video outlines this nicely. Ironically your video was well though-out and describes a convoluted paradigm that needs to be re-imagined.
very good and practical .. thanks
So great information,wish you could write in short too as i am new to this and half of the things get over my head
This is good info...thank you👍
Great advice
I was hooked even more when you mentioned the OSI model lol
Sometimes you gotta drop the basics
Very informative, thanks
Thanks. For your videos...
I need to work this profession and transition nicely, I hope that TMH gives me and my brother the patience and ability to do this. As well as the good fortune. This seems so tricky and difficult
Thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Thank you for sharing
So much information
Oh really? SO MUCH information? Bro’s just stating the most obvious facts any ape is aware of.
Thank you!!!
Thanks!
Hi Joe, Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. I will follow your advise. Question? What Docker course should I take in Udemy?
I came to say thank you. I started python using the book your recommended despite trying so many online tutorials, I am on day 3 now and it is the best so far. I am doing assignment along with the book, I formed sentences, making list and more.
Thank you so so much. I am on my way to solutions architect anytime soon now. Thank you so so much
Whats the name of the book, olusola?
The name of book please
@@dalalabdelwahab428pytho. Crash course is the name of the book
Great advice, is it possible to break it down timewise, e.g. the first month do this, the second month do that, etc. based on your expertise and experience?
Thanks for the video
Thanks for this video
Absolutely awesome summary! Is there a way to ask you some one on one questions privately?
Sir,thaaaank you for this info.
Awesom information 👏🏿
Detailed Roadmap with facts only
Nice explanation thank you
Appreciate the roadmap Joe! Q - based on the suggested roadmap, realistically, how long should it take a person to grasp it enough to secure him/herself for a could job? Thx!
